          @townsenk64 turned out to be a bug upstream, fix was accepted. I will commit to upstream and pull fix into our tree.

            @cmcdonald is there a workaround in the meantime, or will there be a new snapshot soon?
            I can't roll back due to needing to be on the dev version for a different issue, but also can't seem to do the initial setup even with doing CLI commands for starting & stopping.

              @JasonTracy you could grab the latest version of https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blob/main/libexec/rc/rc.subr and plop it in /etc/rc.subr

                    Did you have to reboot pfSense or did it just work ?

                    I went to /etc/ and did

                    fetch https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blob/main/libexec/rc/rc.subr
                    

                    It replaced the /etc/rc.subr as seen by the timestamp. Then trying to start tailscale in the GUI it's still the same.

                    in CLI it's still the same error:

                    tailscale status
                    failed to connect to local tailscaled process (is it running?); got: Failed to connect to local Tailscale daemon for /localapi/v0/status; not running? Error: dial unix /var/run/tailscale/tailscaled.sock: connect: no such file or directory

                      If you just fetch it like that it will pull the github webpage not the script.

                      Try: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/refs/heads/main/libexec/rc/rc.subr

                        @mfld it just worked, but I manually edited the file & copy/pasted the text from the website into it.

                          Indeed, I did now raw it. It was a bunch of HTML lol. Boot environments FTW!
